Overview
Iraq's gni per capita stood at $6,524 in 2025, a rise of +$494 from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach $6,524 by 2025. Iraq ranked 113th globally.
Iraq’s GNI per capita has risen to US$6,524.00 in 2025, placing the country 113th in the global ranking after a 64‑year series of measurements that began in 1962 with a baseline of US$300.00. The indicator reached its historical apex of US$7,000.00 in 1990, shortly before a dramatic collapse to a trough of US$40.00 in 1993, reflecting the severe economic disruption of that period. Since the early 2000s, the trajectory has been upward, mirroring the modest gains of peers such as Paraguay (US$6,537.00) and Turkmenistan (US$6,449.00), yet still lagging behind Ecuador’s US$6,975.00 level. The sustained post‑conflict reconstruction, diversification of oil revenues and incremental reforms have underpinned the recent increase, but future growth will depend on the stability of oil markets, the pace of private‑sector development and the effectiveness of institutional reforms, which could either accelerate or temper the upward trend.
